FAQs
Can these be used for running?
While durable and supportive, these trainers are specifically engineered for court-based lateral movements rather than the linear motion of long-distance running.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the Gel-Challenger 15 comes with removable insoles, allowing you to use your own custom orthotics.
How should I clean my trainers?
Use a damp cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The standard construction offers a regular fit. If you typically require a specific width, you may want to try them on to ensure the volume meets your needs.
What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology is designed to absorb shock during impact, reducing stress on the feet and ankles during intense athletic activities.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slippage inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tightened properly using the top eyelets for a more secure 'heel lock' fit.
Insole sliding or bunching up
Remove the insole, clean the interior compartment of any grit, and ensure the insole is seated perfectly flat before re-inserting.
Breathability feels reduced over time
Gently clean the mesh upper with a soft brush to remove dust and debris that may be clogging the material pores.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-Challenger 15 lasts throughout the season, follow these best practices:
- Fit Check: Ensure the trainers are laced snugly but not too tightly to maintain circulation while keeping the heel locked in place.
- Customization: If you use custom orthotics, remove the factory insole entirely before inserting your own to ensure proper volume inside the shoe.
- Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after play to remove dust or court debris. Do not machine wash.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature if they become damp. Avoid placing them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can degrade the specialized materials and foam.
